Atlas Free is on a mission to end sex trafficking and exploitation. Our work is urgent, relational, and built on trust. Major donors are among the most powerful forces in the fight for freedom. Strong relationships with them mobilize the resources required to dismantle trafficking and expand frontline solutions. We are looking for a
gifted communicator and sharp storyteller
who can clearly articulate Atlas Free's mission to people with the capacity to accelerate it. This person will not simply manage a portfolio. They will help expand the
reach, reputation, and influence of Atlas Free

The Major Gifts Officer will manage and grow a portfolio of high-capacity supporters while cultivating new relationships, turning meaningful engagement into multi-year financial investment in the mission. We are looking for someone who wants to
do fundraising differently
. Someone who believes strong relationships, compelling storytelling, and clear opportunities for impact drive generosity.

• Major donors who are actively engaged in the mission and investing at meaningful levels
• Conversations that clearly connect generosity to measurable impact
• A growing portfolio of high-capacity donors who are committed to the work of Atlas Free
• Clear progression from first connection to significant and multi-year commitments
• New high-capacity donors entering the portfolio each year
• Measurable revenue growth: $1M+ in year one, with a clear pathway developed with the Development Director to scale toward $2M annually by years two to three
• Strong stewardship that increases retention and long-term giving

This role requires strategic focus, confidence in relationships, and a disciplined, data-informed approach to fundraising.
